Natural Processing Trainings: Part One

Integrating Somatic Psychotherapy with EMDR Therapy

Tracking Resiliency • Pacing the Work • Deepening Processing

In this intensive 4-day course, therapists will learn assessing and intervening from a somatic perspective while using EMDR, to enhance the therapy process. Heightened awareness of the functioning of the body and nervous system aid the therapist in pacing the work well. This approach taps into our natural inclination towards completion, integrating well with the EMDR AIP model. Therapists can increase their skills in tracking and developing resiliency, crucial for the many moments in therapy when our clients struggle to stay regulated.

After this training, therapists describe new awareness and practice in their therapy with immediate positive effects that they implement with their first session back in the office.

This is a stand-alone training, so there is no requirement to take subsequent trainings. It is foundational for the Natural Processing approach. NP Parts 2, 3 & 4 are described on the website, and may be taken after NP 1. Consultation and practicums in this approach are available.
